Kabiru
Turaki, a former Minister of Special Duties and a Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, Presidential aspirant, has insisted that politicians are not behind the
crisis between herdsmen and farmers across the country.

Turaki said
the crisis escalated due to the inability of the President Muhammadu Buhari’s
government to rise to the challenge of insecurity in the country.

He said this
while reacting to claims by the spokesman of Nigeria’s military,
Brigadier-General John Agim that politicians were sponsoring the incessant
killings in some parts of the country.

Speaking
with Vanguard, Turaki expressed sadness that the military authorities were
pointing fingers at politicians rather than the government.

The former
Minister recalled that the National Security Adviser, Major-General Mohammed
Monguno (retd) recently admitted that there was a friction between the nation’s
security agencies.

He noted
that their inability to work cooperatively was one of the reasons for the
increased killings in the country.

According to
Turaki, “This government that has failed to galvanize its security agencies to
develop synergy by working together as opposed to working at cross purposes
cannot blame anybody but itself.

“Recently,
the NSA appeared before the Senate and alluded to the fact that the security
agencies are indeed fighting themselves instead of working together. And it is
a matter of public knowledge that today, the security situation in the country
has gotten worse so much so that Nigeria is included among the most unsecured
countries in the world.”

“A situation
where countries like Libya and Niger Republic are considered more secure than
Nigeria is certainly unacceptable for whatever reason.

“The All
Progressives Congress, APC-led Federal Government must brace up and do the
needful or give way to a party and a President that has the capacity and
political will to save us from the menace that they have plunged us into.”
